It's been a long week and it took a lot of hands, but one side is done!
A wall is built and a window is framed
Energy Excitement and Wonder
About what we will find awaiting us
Riding Watching Absorbing
While we travel by car plane and bus
Highways City Roads Outskirt Lanes
This is how we will get to our job site
Cemetary Road Driveway
Here it is as we slow and take a right
Trees Old Pick Up FEMA Trailer
We pull up on the lawn and get out
House Termites Sinking Feeling
As we stand in disbelief I want to shout
Despair Overwhelmed Defeated
Oh my God how my mind is in conflict
Debris Scattered Remains Ruins
Total chaos under a roof held up by sticks
Woman Bright Smile Greeting Us
She approaches thanking me for coming
Perky Bright Eyed Full of Hope
Her hope has sparked mine let's get going
